So the other day I left it with no money inside just to see. She put her clothes in and left them for two days. After coming back and realising she'd have to pay she actually look the clothes out wet and took them away with her. She's now using my money again. I don't even know is it the money I'm angry about like having to go to shops specifically for change or her fcking attitude.

People presumed she was loaded but in actual fact the properties were mortgaged to the hilt and in negative equity so she couldn't even sell them to break even. Took her almost 10years to pay down the mortgages and start selling them.
